Jeremiah19:8
8 And I will make this city desolate, and an hissing: every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished and hiss, because of all the plagues thereof .
This is no more then we met with before, chap. 18.16. and shall again meet with; mens honour and reputation is ordinarily very dear to them, it was especially to the Iewes, who valued themselves much upon the reputation their City and their Temple had, and the security they promised themselves from their right in the Holy City and Land. God tells them, he will make them as much a scorn and reproach, as ever they were for an honour or praise, as great a wonderment for the wrath and vengeance he would execute upon them, as they had been in their flourishing state for the mercies which he bestowed upon them.
Marginal references: chap. 18.16. and 49.13. and 50.13.
